how to make neem paste for hair - #40574
I am really struggling with my hair lately. I’ve been experiencing some major hair fall, and my scalp has been super itchy! I read that neem is good for hair health and thought about trying it out. I saw some articles suggesting that I should learn how to make neem paste for hair, but they didn’t really explain it well. I mean, do I just crush the leaves? Or do I need to add something else? Last week, I got fresh neem leaves from a local market, and I’m not sure if I need to boil them or just grind them raw? Also, how much should I use for, like, long hair? And can I store this neem paste for a few days or it has to be freshly made every time? I feel confused because I hear neem is gritty if not done right, and my hair is already brittle. Plus, is it better to mix neem paste with oils or something? Or should I use it alone? Any tips or a simple recipe on how to make neem paste for hair would be great! I’m really hoping to find a natural remedy that actually works! Thanks a ton!

To make neem paste for hair, start with around 20-30 fresh neem leaves. Wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt. The leaves can indeed be used raw, but a quick boil helps soften them, making the paste smoother. Boil the neem leaves in a small amount of water for about 5-10 minutes—this helps to soften thee leaves (and makes them easier to grind) afterwards. Drain the water and let cool for a while.
Once cooled, you can grind the leaves into a paste using a mortar and pestle, or you might use a blender if that’s easier for you. If using a blender, add a little water gradually—just enough to make the paste smooth but not runny. Neem is potent, so for long hair, this amount should suffice.
Freshly prepared neem paste is always preferred since it maintains its potency, but if you must store it, keep it in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bear in mind, it’s always best fresh for the most benefits and powerful effects.
Now, regarding mixing neem paste with other ingrediants: neem can indeed be quite potent on its own, and its texture might be gritty. You can mix neem paste with some coconut oil or even water to make it smoother and more manageable. Alternatively, some people like combining it with yogurt or honey for additional soothing properties, but if your concern is hair fall and itchiness, coconut oil would be a good choice due t its nourishing effects.
Apply this mixture to your scalp and hair, leave it on for about 20-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Be cautious if your scalp is sensitive—do a patch test first. Repeat this treatment once a week to start, observing how your hair and scalp respond.
If your hair is already quite brittle, ensure you complement this treatment with a good hair care routine—use a mild shampoo and consider nourishing treatments, like warm oil massages or herbal hair masks beyond neem. And always pay attention to your body’s response; if irritation occurs, stop using immediately.
